Extra 4: The Emperor collapses and the world is in chaos
An hour later, still in the meeting hall, Cao Cao came back with a gloomy look. A middle-aged civil servant in front of Guo Jia asked:
"Prime Minister, how about it?"
Cao Cao shook his head and said:
"Gongda, Huangpu Song's comment to Xiao Jiang is a bit scary. Are you sure you won't laugh after hearing it?"
Guo Jia said curiously:
"Uh... is there any comment that can make us laugh? Prime Minister, please tell me."
Cao Cao said:
"The root cause of the chaos in the world is the greed of the powerful and the ambition of the princes. If the world is to be governed, Xiao Jiang is the only one. No one can match Xiao Jiang's civil and military skills. If he is willing, it will only take ten years to bring order to the world. If he is not willing, the world will be in chaos for hundreds of years."
."
"Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha……"
When Guo Jia heard this, he couldn't help laughing. Even a restrained person like Xun Yu and Xun You Man Chong couldn't help but laugh. Guo Jia finished laughing and said:
"It seems that Mr. Huangpu is seriously ill. Such nonsense is not just a joke, it is simply nonsense."
Xun You smiled and said:
"Yes, Mr. Huangpu is a veteran of three dynasties. He was once a famous general. Now that he is old, he is no different from ordinary old people."
Man Chong has the coldest personality, he sneered:
"According to Mr. Huangpu, we don't need to take revenge. We can directly rely on Xiao Jiang to help him sweep away the world. Gee, that's a great achievement."
Compared to the ridicule of the three great counselors, Xun Yu's eyes flickered and he lowered his head to think. Cao Cao smiled and saw what Xun Yu was thinking and asked:
"Wen Ruo, it seems like you have other ideas. Let's talk about it."
Xun Yu can be regarded as the top talent in the internal affairs of the Three Kingdoms. He may be worse than others in military strategy, but there are absolutely few people who can compare with him in analyzing and handling various things. He looked up at everyone and said:
"It is rumored that when Lü Bu and Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he went to capture the Dong thief's Meiwu half a day in advance, and then handed Diaochan to Lü Bu. He also exchanged the Dong thief's grain and grass military pay for 20,000 war horses, and at the same time obtained the post of Lujiang prefect.
And opened the general's mansion.
Although he has not taken the initiative to expand his territory in the past few years, after integrating his father's territory, there are only six counties. However, I heard that all the people in his territory have land, and there is a large amount of surplus grain in his hands every year. Millions of refugees from all over the place have taken refuge, which can be called
This is the most prosperous and peaceful place in this troubled world.
Xiao Jiang can have such an ability, even if it is not as miraculous as Mr. Huangpu said, he is still a generation of wizards.
If we attack Xuzhou and cannot capture him, as long as we continue to struggle with him, when Yuan Shao finishes clearing the north and turns around, we will lose sight of both ends."
Cao Cao squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly he clenched his fist and said:
"If Xiao Jiang is not eliminated, he will be a big worry sooner or later. We will start our troops tomorrow and we must capture Xuzhou within the month."
The war horn sounded, but there was one person who didn't care. That was Xiao Jiang, one of the protagonists of the war. He was not even in a hurry. When Cao Jun had left Xuchang for almost three hundred miles, he just let Liu Guanzhang, Zang Ba and others
Lead the troops to intercept.
…
One day later, a shocking tragedy occurred in Xuchang City. Emperor Xian Liu Xie was killed. At this time, Xiao Jiang's 10,000 cavalry just happened to rush into Xuchang City.
Xiao Jiang only learned the news after he captured hundreds of officials, and no one knew who the murderer was. Anyway, Xiao Jiang knew that he was not one of his own nor Cao Cao's. The purpose of killing Liu Xie was to make himself and Cao Cao take the blame.
"Liu Xie burps, the world is in chaos, oh..."
In the Xuchang Palace, Xiao Jiang looked at a group of incompetent officials and whispered, he knew what Liu Xie's death meant, that was the beginning of uncontrolled wars among the unruly princes in the world.
Xiao Jiang didn't like any of this group of civil servants because his ideas were completely inconsistent with theirs. Just as the ministers looked at Xiao Jiang who had occupied Xuchang in less than an hour with fear, four servants outside the door carried
A chair stood at the door of the hall, and a soldier shouted:
"General, Lord Huangpu Song wants to see you."
Upon hearing that it was Huangpu Song, Xiao Jiang hurried out to greet him. Looking at the sick Huangpu Song, Xiao Jiang frowned and said:
"Master Huangpu, let me know if you have something to do. Xiao Jiang will definitely come to listen to his teachings. If you are in such poor health, there is no need to come in person."
Huangpu Song waved his hand and motioned for his servants to carry him into the hall. He looked at everyone with his cloudy eyes and said:
"My lords, I heard at home that your majesty was assassinated when General Xiao was attacking the city. The emperor has no queen, the clan is in chaos, the princes of the world are divided and the land is divided, and the world will be in chaos next. You still need to keep your eyes open, yes
It depends on your choice whether you go with the flow or take responsibility for the safety of the people in the world.
Someone is plotting to kill Your Majesty, and everyone can think of only one possibility, which is to let Cao Mengde and Xiao Fusheng be blamed for the source of the chaos in the world. Nowadays, the princes are divided and the world is without a master. I am about to die, so naturally I cannot see the time when the world will be reunited.
Wait..."
Huangpu Song's eyes suddenly became extremely clear. He looked at Xiao Jiang and said:
"If the world needs a master, it must be someone with unparalleled martial arts skills. I will only see one person in my life... I hope you... you... will..."
Before Huangpu Song finished speaking, his pupils shrank for a while and his head tilted and he died. Xiao Jiang sighed and stepped forward, closed his eyes and said:
"You guys, I don't want to say anything more. Your Majesty's death has caused chaos in the world. I will arrange the funeral affairs of Your Majesty and Huangpu. You can go home for the time being, but don't leave Xuchang. I will study it after I resolve Cao Mengde's matter.
Your business.
Remember not to look for trouble. Although Xiao doesn’t like killing people, except those who seek death. Cao Cao is like this, and so are you."
Not to mention, although Xiao Jiang has not caused trouble for several years, his reputation can still intimidate these people, especially this time when he raided Xuchang, no one could imagine it.
In fact, everything is very simple. There are detectors and Xiaobai in Xiaojiang. He is more familiar with the various routes from Xuchang to Xuzhou than all the spies. When Cao Cao's army was halfway through, he had already led the cavalry along some unknown passages.
Xuchang.
When he got here, Xiao Jiang entered the city himself, killed the guards and opened the city gate. It was not easy for these elite cavalry to break into Xuchang, which had few defenders.
Xiao Jiang does not look at the almanac when burying people, and no matter whether they are emperors or ministers, he does not need to give people any kind of benevolence and righteousness. He respects Huangpu Song more, and he also helps the Huangpu family deal with future generations. As for Liu Xie
Son, Xiao Jiang directly found someone to get a coffin and buried it casually.
…
"Sister Xiao Jiang, you don't dare to fight me head-on. You dare to sneak attack and seize my Xuchang. If you don't leave Xuchang today, I will trap you to death in Xuchang City."
Three days later, outside Xuchang City, Cao Cao's army quickly turned around when they learned that the emperor had died and Xuchang was lost. At this time, an angry Cao Cao couldn't help shouting and cursing outside the city gate. It looked like his beard was shaking with anger.
